Hmmm... this sounds a duel. Anderson Cooper vs Bill O'Reilly. If Cooper wins, the Republican Party banishes. LOL

You first. And heaven knows your party is the freak show. It ain't the Republicans. Go to your average lefty rally, and there you will find the lunatics.

I distinctly remember "Bomb Israel" signs and an image of George Bush's severed head at the last leftist rally I had the unfortunate luck of being stuck in. You don't see that sort of childish behavior from the right, and there's a reason for it.

Let's not forget the burning of the effigies of soldiers in Portland that just happened this past year, either. The endless stream of BushHitlerSatan?

Please, the inmates may be running the asylum, but nobody is buying this load of steaming you-know-what.

2) We can throw out Fox News as well, no problem there, but since they enjoy a much larger share of the ratings, then CNN gets tossed out with MSNBC.

3) I'll allow Frank to stay. But if he ever needs to say anything he must write it down first and hold it up to the camera.



I think this all seems fairly reasonable.
I think I can agree to this.

Can the INK that Frank uses be INVISABLE? If so, I might be on board. But I would have to request a bag over his head if he was permitted to stay.

But hey, who feeds what is controlling your party?? Rupert Murdoch owns GOP and can rewrite it's charter if he feels like it???
And still the arguments persist that popularity contests count for more than telling the truth. The vapid narcissism running amok has earned you all participating the government you deserve.

Sounds like a good deal.. but lets add Fox news to it since MSNBC is on the table... personally I thought they favored the repubs... I thought it was funny on election night with 1% of votes in they would call a state for McCain, but with more than 40% in with a large lead they still would not call it for Obama...

Come on lets take Comedy Central off the table... there is enough on both sides to laugh at..
